Tuition charges at Texas state universities are established by state law. The Texas
78th Texas Legislature (2003) allowed the Board of Regents of The University of Texas
System to set designated tuition rates.

The Texas Legislature does not set the specific amount for any particular student
fee. Student fees assessed are authorized by state statute; however, the specific
fee amounts and the determination to increase fees are made by the university administration
and The University of Texas System Board of Regents. Other expenses at The University
of Texas at Tyler are fixed within statutory limitations by the Board of Regents.

The cost to attend UT Tyler varies with the individual student. The university reserves
the right to change tuition and fees in keeping with acts of the Texas Legislature
and/or policies of the Board of Regents.
